Grimes has shared ‘Delete Forever’, another cut from her forthcoming fifth album ‘Miss_Anthropocene’.

The acoustic guitar-led song initially plays out like an early Oasis off-cut before vocal samples and banjo trills are spliced in the mix. Listen below.

‘Delete Forever’ follows Grimes’ recent singles ‘So Heavy I Fell Through the Earth’, ‘My Name is Dark’, ‘Violence’ and lead album track ‘We Appreciate Power’, which was released in 2018.

The Canadian soloist also recently debuted album track ‘4ÆM’, which features on the Cyberpunk 2077 game soundtrack.

In other news, Grimes (real name Claire Boucher) announced last month that she is pregnant with her first child.

The artist took to Instagram on January 8 to post an image of herself with a baby superimposed onto her stomach.

With no caption to accompany the photograph, many fans in the comments section suspected that it could be a new piece of concept art for the musician’s upcoming album. But Boucher has since posted more updates, including asking her followers how they dealt with their first pregnancy.

Fake or real? Haha. Wow I’m starting to feel bad haha… how do y’all cope with working and having a baby?? I’m sorry I haven’t been promoting my album properly or on social media more. This whole thing has been a bit of an ordeal. Had some complications early on, a decent second trimester but starting to hurt everywhere at 25 wksz. What were yalls experience w this stuff like? I feel like I was woefully ill prepared cuz I dunno if pregnancy is as visible or discussed as it should be. I just didn’t rly understand what I was getting into. It’s been good too, but it makes working a lot harder. Good at writing and having lots of wild ideas tho, but anything physical is hard. Im also way more emo and less capable of bravery in the face of haters online and stuff haha. But my albums out in a sec so I prob need to get back on here. Don’t mind my emo energy, but curious what other ppls experience was like I didn’t even google it, I was just like sure y not hahaha smh
